Invincible Heart Foundation
Living with heart disease changes lifetime plans because you suddenly have no choice or control as you face difficult, painful and unexpected situations. It becomes a kind of post-traumatic stress for the child and the family. All feelings are present: guilt, helplessness, pain, anger, sadness, disbelief. The lifetime dreams are put on hold, and the costs are enormous, emotionally as well as socially and financially.
Childhood, under these conditions, takes on a whole new meaning, and dreams can seem unattainable.
The Invincible Heart Foundation provides opportunities for children and their families to participate in activities that help them realize that a child with a heart condition is, like any other child, a child with dreams, abilities, victories and pride.
The Foundation, with Dr. Vobecky at the helm, seeks the best ways for children and their families to thrive and flourish without limitations, prejudice or discrimination. It is a compelling continuation of her 30-year practice that brings to life her motto: «for healing, treatment and care are as inseparable as the body and soul of any human being are.«
